to be or not to be

On April 23, Medium user ranimes posted a blog entitled, “New batchOverflow Bug in Multiple ERC20 Smart Contracts,” detailing how a “a previously unknown vulnerability in the contract” that could allows “an attacker to possess a huge amount of tokens by exploiting these vulnerable contracts,” thus allowing for price manipulation. The blog mentions that another problem could arise with non-centralized exchanges that use offline trading services, “as they cannot even stop attackers from laundering their tokens.” TOTAL FAIL THE END

Lol ?!?!??!?!?!?!??!?! and the last sentence The current problem with some ERC20 tokens comes just after MyEtherWallet reported yesterday that around $150 mln ETH was stolen in an unrelated DNS hack.
